Hello, everyone, been enjoying my summer and havent gone out these few days so I have some free time and have nothing else to do but use the computer. So heres another beauty product review. This was a face wah that I used to use. As said before in my previous post, I enjoy using natural products so .....First Impressions: Once I saw this I wanted to buy it, I heard of how Aloe is really good for the skin, and I just love drinking aloe too so I just wanted to buy it. Aloe is also great for skin that has been out in the sun for a very long time.
Okay, so this is what it promises to do"KANEBO Naive Facial Foam Aloe is a cream cleanser with added aloe extract to help penetrate deep down into the pores to rid of dirt and oil. It's 100% nature generated washing ingredients including amino acid and its extra fine lather gently cleanse your skin while protecting it from drying. This foam has fresh citrus green fragrance to helps grab onto to dirt and make-up for a refreshing and clean feeling. There is no need to double wash because this facial cleanser also works as a make-up remover. The added trehalose helps restore the natural moisture back into your skin for softer and smoother."

My Review: Okay so as always I just read the directions on what to do, it says “Apply a small amount to dampened skin and gently massage. Rinse throughly with warm water.” Well, I did that then did not feel anything special, but once I rinsed my face with water, wow…..it felt so clean. You know that squeaky clean feeling? Well, that’s how it felt, I seriously love it! And the smell is a very light scent of Aloe. But after using for a while I noticed that it is a bit too dry for my combination skin. This brand of cleanser also come in different flavors check it out here. So basically this is great…but, it does not remove makeup so now I have switched to using another cleanser, a cleanser that takes off makeup and cleanses. So I would recommend to girls that don’t wear makeup or have time to use separate beauty products and for oily skin or normal skin type.

Hi everyone, first of all I want to say THANKS…thanks for my followers, you guys follow even though my blog is still boring and just began. Thanks for following, it makes me want to continue blogging :]

Okay well today I want to review and tell you guys about the Ahava Mineral Hand Cream. Nowadays everyone wants to use natural stuff, and this line of product is from the Dead Sea.

Okay First Impressions: When I first saw this bottle I thought it was just another one of those hand creams, and ergh blah blah blah, but what got me into buying this was that it was from the dead sea and contained minerals. So then I bought it while I was at Costco

A luxuriously rich cream drenches the hands in velvety smoothness. Treats skin to deep-down nourishment. Formulated to calm and soften rough hands to a surprisingly smooth texture. Apply anytime throughout the day for immediate relief and improvement.”

My Review on the Product:

Before going to be bed I got about a quarter amount onto my hands. Then wow, it seriously does exactly what it says. It is so awesome. Leaved my hands velvety smooth. I definitely recommend this to everyone. (But since it is too thick of moisture, I won’t recommend using in the summer. Because your hands would be sweaty) This is just excellent product, and I would definitely want to buy it again.

First Impressions:Ok so I was so happy that time when I came (I already have been using this for a long time...so sorry for the late review! ...but anyways continuing..) so I was super happy :) when it came, At first when I saw the dark color I was a bit scared that It was going to make my face look darker, I had no idea why it claimed to be brightening and whitening the face when it comes in such a dark color (lol... :] sorry guys, if u didnt know yet, but I really am a super duper super duper beginner in makeup, I'm better in skincare...but Im learning from all of you great blogger out there, which are such PROS..at makeup!!!) So well at first I thought that I had wasted my $28 dolllars on this $*it but....I guess not! After apply on my face ...OMG I fell in love with BB cream, From then on I am officially a BB cream maniac, no kidding, I'm officially like now totally obsessed with these BB creams, they are just so amazing awesome!!!

Now for what you've all been waiting for....TA DA

My Review on this product: First off have to tell you guys a little about my skin,
-I have Combination skin
-only a little bit of pimples on forehead, but occasionally have more (when my period come...-_-)
-Middle Fair colored skin (meaning I'm tying to get fair, hahaha...but not quite there, I'm not pale..just a little fair skin toned :p) and have Yellow undertone

Ok well when I applied the product it was so amazing like MAGIC it turned my skin to be brighter and gave me this glow, and had a shimmery feeling, when I looked closely I could actually see these little glitter on my skin, its subtle and I really love it, It makes my skin better, It helps those annoying red pimples that I get occasionally!!! It balances out my skin tone, and it really does what it says...It also kind of hides my dark circles, just a little bit, not a whole lot (but thats because I have hereditary dark circles...) But I'm sure for you guys who just have those dark circles from partying too much and not getting enough beauty sleep, u would be fine...Im pretty sure it would be able to cover it just fine ^_^ what else can I say I just LOVE this BB cream!!

I totally recommend to everyone!

Just one thing...for those of u that will go & buy this bb cream, remember to always put SPF (sunblock!)even if its raining! I'm not even kidding, seriously! :]

ok well hope that this review helped! and I'll try my best to do a evern more detailed review with pictures! Sorry my LOVELY FOLLOWERS!!! Ive been so away lately, school is so stressful, and (and hey!*update* >_< to those that know about my crush thing....with my best guy friend, I've been a bit confused lately, he's been really awkward lately, and I dont think i have any hope at all....He's been talking about "Oh wow, shes so hot...." straight in front of my face... , he's been doing that alot lately, I asked some of my friends, they said its like a signal or something...they said that hes trying to get my attention or something.....or is he ? x_x Im so confused , my head hurts...and yet he's still so funny always making me laugh, and yet sometimes so weird, lately saying stuff like this ...so when I walk by him, then he would be like "oww...u stepped on me..oww, it hurts"(when in reality i didnt...)then I would be like.."pfh...yah right stop faking it, and kick him, jokingly (not even really hard)...>_....and when I do something like if were finishing class, and class is over, then I have to put away the chair, out of everyone, he could help, he picks me and helps me get the chair to put it away...so nice.....yet how can I ever say those 3 words, (no, not I love u....its not to that point yet, even though it is kind of....but it would be way to hard for me, but just how would i say to him that "I like u" ) My friends, told me that it would be hard for me to be the one chasing a guy .....and it would be hard for me to make the first move...Its always been the guys that should do the first move...or should they?? )Please HELP ME!! Im seriously confused, dont know what i should do, any tips or even a little advice will help me big time!, thanks!!! love all of u!

" Experience the brilliant brightness of a real Swarovski crystal casted on a classic pink designed bottle. A star rises amongst the various facial foundations.The BB foundation crème turns into micro water droplets when applied; this promotes faster absorption and forms a water-lock soft film on the skin.It moisturizes skin and controls oil shine at the same time. Experience a “light”, “transparent” and "bright” perfect skin; achieve a flawless make-up complexion just like a ceramic doll.

Shills Ceramic BB Flawless Foundation is a must-have for your make-up. With a light pink tone and 3D pearlescent pigments, it helps to modify flaws on the skin, face looks brilliant and glossy after application, a definitely show for a perfect face."

wow..right? lets see, if it really does what it says its supposed to do

My ReviewI was happy when it came in a sweet package ...I had to order it online here: http://e-onestopbeautyshop.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=1_18&products_id=520(its a really great site, cheaper than many other sites on buying Taiwan beauty products, I recommend this site for people that dont live in Taiwan)

okay so when I go it , reading the usage, it says"Usage: Use after your basic skin care routine. Can be used as a concealer, make-up foundation or a UV protects cream. Can be applied to hands and legs too."-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------So I started using it in the morning before going off to school :]I got a quarter size and applied it evenly onto my entire face.Looking at the mirror and seeing my compleaxion was great it gotten brighter and as I looked closer I could really see glitter like effects. The moisture is perfect for my combination skin, so I believe it would be great for about all skin types. But the bad thing about it is that it does not hide my dark circles, it helps my pimples because I dont really have that much, I just have small pinples on my forehead. It covers a little bit, not much ..its just a sheer coverage so dont think of it as soing wonders. But seriously I love the smell, it has a light rose like smell. Overall its just okay, not the best bb cream, but its good enough for the price.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------My ReviewFirst of all you should definitely first watch It started with a kiss before watching this...if thats what you havent done then hurry and go watch it: here, quick...its a great drama dont miss out http://ohwowsorandom.blogspot.com/2009/07/drama-review-it-started-with-kiss.html

okay so my thoughts about this, as always start off with my first impression , again for some reason it made me feel really annoyed with that girl and that guy when xiang qin and zhi shu was at the island, but then again since its a comedy things may not seem to be the way many of us want to see it as...all the romance and some conflicts make this drama great....watch it now!

the beggining seems to be lagging and takes a while but its worth waiting since there are so many new actors in this drama look below their so cute....wang zi( as Ah nuo)
and the main charcters
Lastly I give this drama a 5star/5star

To her surprise, the kind and amicable aunt and uncle are the parents of her cold and distant schoolmate Jiang Zhi Shu, a genius with an IQ of 200 whom not too long ago rejected her endless crush on him. Will the close proximity give her a second chance to win Zhi Shu's heart? Or, will her love for him end under his cold words? What happens when there is competion for his heart?TRIVIAThe series was based on the Japanese shoujo manga "Itazura na kiss" (Mischievous kiss) by Tada Kaoru. The are 23 volumes of the manga. There is no ending for the manga; the series was still running in Margaret when the author passed away at the age of 38 from a brain aneurysm.Itazura na Kiss (TV Asahi, 1996) is the Japanese adaptation.The filming of It Started with a Kiss lasted one entire year. Some scenes were filmed in different seasons, which resulted in many goofs.The director, Qu You Ning, made two cameos in the drama: One as the fat, middle age woman on a bus who accuses Ah Jin was taking advantage of her and another as Zhi Shu's boyfriend in Xiang Qin's imagination (birthday gift giving scene).The sequel is set to air in September 2007 due to the show's high ratings (60.1%, third most popular drama in the country) in Taiwan.----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------My ReviewOk, I'll start off with first impressions, when I started watching it I thought it looked pretty dumb of a drama, and I thought ...of boy another one of those really lame Taiwanese dramas, but then after watching one episode eek, I got addicted to it. (its a really funny drama) watch the first episode and you'll understand what i mean. its a bout this girl that really likes this guy and she finally decides on proposing and telling him that he likes her but haha ...something happens its really funny, watch it now!

a little fact: The main actress Ariel Lin is one of the best actors in Taiwan she won a goldlden bell for best actress. her acting skills are superb, shes awesome.
